Primary Reading Rooms

To inculcate love for reading, school has introduced a unique concept of personalized spaces as reading rooms and class libraries. Pre Primary Reading Rooms play an important role in promoting reading skills in children. A child starts reading even before he understands or recognizes the printed letters. This is possible due to storytelling sessions by teachers in pre-school. Many creative ideas like voice modulation, face expression and acting are used for storytelling to maintain the interest and concentration of the children.

Class Libraries

A class library is maintained in each section from classes Nursery to V. Children are issued books for a week on every Friday from this library. To encourage reading School offers a DEAR (Drop Everything And Read) period as part of their regular time table.
